Method and device for data processing using agents between evaluating means and distributing means
First Claim
1. A method for data processing comprising the following steps:
- generating data by means of a recording means;
transmitting the data to a data distributing means for distribution of the data to a plurality of suitable data evaluating means, wherein, in the data distributing means,the data to be evaluated are associated to a suitable data evaluating means, andthe data are transferred into a standardized data container for transmission, andtransmitting the standardized data container to the suitable data evaluating means, whereineach suitable data evaluating means is associated with an agent on the side of the data distributing means and another agent on the side of the suitable data evaluating means, and wherein data exchanged between each suitable data evaluating means and the data distributing means are exchanged exclusively between the two agents,wherein suitability parameters of the suitable data evaluating means are sampled for association of the data to a suitable evaluating means, andwherein the suitability parameters are stored in a file of the agent on the side of the data distributing means, the file being specific to a suitable data evaluating means.

Abstract
A data processing method with which especially image data, generated by an image recording means such as a CCD camera, may be processed, comprises a data distributing means. The data are transmitted from the recording means to a manager of the data distributing means. The manager selects a suitable agent related to an evaluating means. Whether an agent is suitable depends on suitability parameters of the evaluating means. For example, suitability parameters are the availability and the type of software stored on the evaluating means. After selection of a suitable agent the data are transmitted between an agent and the corresponding evaluating means via an interposed agent and another manager (24). The data transmission is always done in standardized data containers.
